Advanced Wireless
This page allows you to configure the fragmentation threshold, RTS threshold,
beacon period, transmit power, DTIM interval, wireless isolation, WMM and WDS
(wireless distribution system).
Transmit Power
: You may control the output power of the device by
selecting a value from the drop-down list. This feature can be helpful in
restricting the coverage area of the wireless network.
Beacon Period
: Beacons are packets sent by a wireless Access Point to
synchronize wireless devices. Specify a Beacon Period value between 20 and
1000. The default value is set to 100 milliseconds.
RTS Threshold
: Packets over the specified size will use the RTS/CTS
mechanism to maintain performance in noisy networks and preventing hidden
nodes from degrading the performance. Specify a value between 1 and
65535. The default value is 2346.
Fragment Threshold
: Packets over the specified size will be fragmented in
order to improve performance on noisy networks. Specify a value between
256 and 65535. The default value is 2346.
DTIM Interval
: A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window
for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. When the wireless Access
Point has buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it
sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. Wireless clients detect the
beacons and awaken to receive the broadcast and multicast messages. The
default value is 1. Valid settings are between 1 and 255.
Wireless Isolation
: Place a check in this box in order to prevent associated
wireless clients from communicating with each other.
WMM Enable
: Enable WMM in order to help control latency and jitter when
transmitting multimedia content over a wireless connection.
